Licensure & Certification Disclosure

Graduates of the PA program are eligible to sit for the Physician Assistant National Certification Exam (PANCE) administered by the National Commission on Certification of the Physician Assistant (NCCPA). All US States, territories, and the District of Columbia have legislation governing the qualifications or practice of physician assistants (PAs).  All jurisdictions require PAs to pass the PANCE. Only those successfully completing the examination may use the credential 鈥淧hysician Assistant-Certified鈥� and be eligible for licensure.

Medical licensure is dependent on many factors including, but not limited to educational requirements, examination requirements, and personal requirements.  As a result, 蜜月直播 cannot determine whether completion of this program would be sufficient to meet all of the licensure or limited permit requirements outside of New York State for the PA occupation. We advise you to contact the state licensing board or appropriate licensing entity to determine whether the program meets requirements for professional licensure in the state in which you reside or intend to pursue licensure.
